Rice Stick Noodle with Chinese Broccoli (Pad See Ew)

You can find rice stick noodle dishes at almost any asian restaurant. You probably saw this dish at Thai restaurants under a different name of Pad See Ew, and a similar dish at Chinese restaurants listed as stir fried flat noodle or Chow Fun. At an Indonesian restaurant it would also be very close, and be listed as Kwetiau. Depending on where you go, some of them may use Oyster Sauce, Sweet Soy Sauce and add different kinds of vegetables all making this dish look and taste different.

Below is my easy flat rice noodle recipe. This is actually one of my favorite asian foods. This recipe uses simple ingredients and is very affordable.

People will mix in many different types of meats and vegetables and I’ve made many variations myself. I like having a vegetable with a little bit of crunch to it, just my opinion. The most important key to this dish however is finding the right noodles and being careful not to overcook them.

Ingredients

1/2pack of Big Flat Rice stick noodles

3cupsof Chinese Broccoli

3whole eggs

2clovesof garlic

1cupof thin sliced chicken or beef or seafood

or for vegetarian: use firm tofu

2Tablespoonsof Vegetable Oil

Sauce

2Tablespoonof Dark Soy Sauce

2Tablespoonof Light Soy Sauce

1TablespoonSugar

1Tablespoonof Rice Vinegaradditional

Instructions

If you purchase uncooked rice noodles, prepare them according to packet instructions. You may want to soak the noodles with cold water for about 30 minutes, then in boiling water for another 5 minutes. Make sure not to overcook the noodles! Drain the noodles until dry and put aside

Heat a wok to high heat and then add 2 tablespoons of oil. Add garlic and your choice of meats / tofu. Cook throughly until the meat turns color to light brown then move the chicken to one side of wok. Put eggs in and scramble. Add noodles then add your vegetable. Stir with the sauce (dark soy sauce, light soy sauce, rice vinegar and sugar). Cook gently for the sauce to cover the noodle and start to caramelize

Chinese and Thai cuisine really share some of the ingredients but I think they can be set apart with the spice they use. The oyster sauce is apparently more Chinese however this is frequently seen as well with recipes of Asian food. The rice stick noodle is a comfort food for me.

Yummy looking noodles! I love it when a lot of veggies are added to noodles and I also love my vegetable with a little bit of crunch to it. I am bookmarking this recipe to try later. Thanks for sharing.

Um yummy. I have never made Chinese food before because I’ve always been intimidated by it but your recipe looks easy and sounds amazing. I’ll have to try this in the future and see how everyone likes it. I know I will love it.

I am really lovin’ all of the different ingredients used to make this dish, and the photo is incredibly appetizing. I have never tried to make Asian noodles at home before. However, this recipe has inspired me to take a look at what our local grocery store has.

We have a local Asian restaurant in the middle of the cool college area here. My husband and I had one of our first dates there, and I love ordering Pad See Ew there. They make it absolutely delicious. It’s my absolute favorite.
